In a trilateral prisoner exchange, 10 Americans were released from Venezuela and returned to the US, while over 200 Venezuelans—many previously held in El Salvador’s CECOT prison—were repatriated. Most of the Venezuelans had been deported from the US under a controversial act, sparking human rights concerns. Only seven had serious criminal records. The deal also included the return of seven Venezuelan children separated from their parents in the US, and Venezuela is expected to release 80 more political prisoners soon.
